Is cluster.cpu.allocated.capacity.disablethreshold calculated using current 
Host usage states or the service offering of the deployed VMs?

Hello,

cpu.overprovisioning.factor is a multiplier on your actual CPU capacity.
Say you have 4 physical cores at 2 GHz each, you have a total capacity of 8 
GHz. An overprovisioning factor of 2 will make cloudstack to count as if there 
were 16 GHz and allocate up to that.

cluster.cpu.allocated.capacity.disablethreshold is the maximum capacity you 
want to allocate. Based on the above example, you can set it to stop allocating 
vms once you've reach 90% capacity (over overprovisioned cpu, this is th 16 
GHz).

thx
